We have lots of students looking for the opportunity to help on a real project. If you are currently working on any plastering jobs please remember to post details so our students can contact you. Please include your location (not full address), what work you are looking for help with and your timescales.
Lets get those jobs across the finish line.

Hi everyone,
I completed the Professional course in December and wondering if there's anyone here from a similar part of the country. I'm in Bedfordshire but targeting surrounding counties as well for work (Bucks, Herts, Cambs, Northamptonshire, possibly down to London).
Also just interested to hear from others from the heritage labourer's course and previous years' professional courses about how it's going, any tips, and if there are any jobs you might want to link up on. Happy to travel :)
Cheers
Jamie

Hello all,
I am based in Boston, Lincolnshire looking for opportunities to work with lime and help out onsite. I recently completed the Heritage Labourer course at Carrington Lime so have a good understanding of Lime and its many uses as well as the practical skills neccesary to help out with mixing, old plaster/render removal, plastering, rendering and pointing on hertitage properties.
Would be great to hear from anyone looking for help or who know of any contacts I can make in my area. Happy to travel too, if there is anything further afield.
Thanks for reading,
Sim

Hello!
I am based out of Manchester and looking to connect with anyone for work and experience opportunities :)
I started my journey in the heritage world late 2024 working on replacing a slate roof. Over the last year I have been involved in projects with plain tile roofing, stripping back properties ready for works, pointing and lots of general labouring! Keeping a well run organised work ground is my speciality. I've just finished my Heritage labourers course with Ben & Kate, learning so much and making some great contacts :)
I'd love to get some further experience in plastering, but ultimately I'm keen to get into work soon and continue gaining skills.
Grateful for any suggestions in my area!
Thanks everyone :)
Hi Sarah - Iโm north west based and depending where you are and willingness to travel should be able to connect you with some contractors in the region.
Feel free to give me a call next week.

Afternoon all,
If you are currently working on a project that you could benefit from help with, do post details here. Our professional students will be finishing their training with us in just two weeks, and we have 8 new heritage labourers starting with us in January - all of whom will be looking for work experience opportunities.
Not only could you get an extra pair of skills hands on your project, but you would be helping the next generation of heritage specialists on your career journey.

Not what I expected to share as first post - but glad to be able.
Sharing on behalf of someone to help find real lime plasterer for 4 large rooms already stripped out in large Victorian property. I would LOVE to help out on this one as itโs exactly the people and reason I got involved.
Do you know who to recommend or suggest?
(I WILL post soon about my recent experiences, own offers and availability I promise)
I'm happy to come and help as a labourer/lackey if someone else can provide the professional part of the request, depending on dates.

Hi,
Is anyone looking for experience rendering over the next few weeks?
We're based near Coleford in the Forest of Dean.
We're using a perlite base coat and gauged top coat.
I have rendered one wall previously, but I could use some help getting this one pushed through.
Thanks,
Hello Dave, would be keen to hear more about how I might be able to assist on this project.
Please feel free to drop me an email on
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kindest regards,
Hannia
Hi Jack,
I'm based in Derbyshire and work ad hoc as a labourer with a lime plasterer. I've completed the plastering course with Carrington Lime and I'm currently renovating my house, plastering with perlite and horsehair. If you think I might be able to help, please send details of the work to matthew.jones@posteo.net. Thanks
